「Aboard Spaceship T623.」

Long Ming leaned back in his chair, his expression shifting constantly. He raised his wristband and glanced at the message again.

“Conscription Order: Red Ghost is hereby ordered to report to Waiting Hall 32 of the Omro Planetary Fortress spaceport within 12 hours to rendezvous with Colonel Hopka. This order cannot be refused or delayed. Failure to comply will result in severe punishment.”

…

Long Ming’s brow furrowed as he stared at the conscription order.

‘What kind of mission has the Second Legion given me? And why is it so secretive?’

DING~

“Ladies and gentlemen, Flight T623 is now approaching the planet Omro. Please prepare for disembarkation.”

The announcement snapped Long Ming out of his thoughts.

Shortly after, Spaceship T623 arrived at the Omro spaceport.

After disembarking, Long Ming found a secluded, empty restroom and went inside. He raised his wristband, opened his inventory, and took out the Blade Blood Demon mecha armor to put it on.

Just then, Hilic’s voice suddenly echoed in Long Ming’s mind.

“Although I have devoured that egg, its genes are proving too difficult to digest. I have only processed a portion so far, so I must hibernate for a while to finish.”

“Alright, I understand.”

Long Ming was rather surprised; he hadn’t expected Hilic to go into hibernation.

“Hmph. Just try not to get pummeled so badly that you’re forced to wake me up.”

“If I’m getting pummeled that badly, you waking up won’t do any good.”

“You!”

Hilic was furious but speechless. After all, the last time it had revealed itself, it had been beaten into submission too.

“Alright, go ahead and hibernate in peace.”

Long Ming replied with a wry smile.

“Hmph. Seeing as you helped me obtain the Energy Crystal and the egg, I will not hold this against you. And I shall grant you a new Power!”

Hilic said to Long Ming.

“A new Power?”

Long Ming was slightly taken aback.

Hilic instantly erupted with Power, and a terrifying, blood-red aura burst forth.

The blood-red aura then flowed back into the Blade Blood Demon mecha armor.

The originally damaged Blade Blood Demon mecha armor was instantly restored to pristine condition, and circuits appeared across its surface, seeming to make it even more powerful.

“What is this?”

“I have enhanced the Blade Blood Demon mecha armor. Not only is its Power greater, but more importantly, it can now proliferate and decompose. This should compensate for the inconvenient shortcoming of having to carry it.”

Hilic told Long Ming proudly.

“Proliferation and decomposition? When did you get this ability? Was it from that egg?”

Long Ming asked, thoroughly surprised.

“Hmph, that is none of your concern. I am going to hibernate now!”

After speaking, Hilic fell into a deep slumber.

Long Ming raised his wristband to check its status and saw that Hilic’s profile now read ‘Hibernating.’

He then checked the name of the mecha armor.

He found that the name had changed to Gen-3 Proliferation-Type Mechanical God · Blade Blood Demon.

Long Ming then focused his will.

The entire Blade Blood Demon mecha armor instantly decomposed, its cells sinking directly into Long Ming’s body, leaving a small red mole on the back of his right hand.

“Not bad. This ability is fantastic!”

Long Ming raised the back of his hand to look, a delighted expression on his face.

‘With this ability, I can bring this mecha armor into Blacktan Fortress out in the open.’

Long Ming took a deep breath, his expression suddenly turning sharp!

WHOOSH!

The Blade Blood Demon mecha armor instantly materialized, covering Long Ming’s entire body.

Clad in the Blade Blood Demon mecha armor, Long Ming walked out of the restroom.

He headed toward Waiting Hall 32.

…

「Waiting Hall 32.」

Colonel Hopka, piloting the Gen-4 Mechanical God · Hell-Shattering Emissary, waited impatiently with Woperi and his other subordinates.

Just then, a Gen-4 standard-issue Hunter Mecha walked over and its pilot spoke arrogantly to Colonel Hopka.

“You’re Colonel Hopka?”

“State your name!”

Hopka’s face darkened as he stared at the man before him.

From the way the man spoke, he could tell he was a troublemaker.

“Chen Hong!”

Chen Hong retracted the helmet covering his face, revealing a ferocious countenance. Two metal studs were embedded in his forehead, and his eyes were like those of a wild beast.

“Finally, one of them is here.”

Colonel Hopka replied, keeping his temper in check.

CLANG~

Just then, another set of heavy footsteps approached.

Hopka turned to look. He saw a high-end, custom Gen-3 Mechanical God, the Light Chaser, approaching. It stood three and a half meters tall, its body completely covered in gray armor. A triangular halo was embedded in its chest, a Light Beam Cannon was mounted on its left shoulder, and a pair of mechanical jet wings was attached to its back. It held a long spear.

“State your name!”

Hopka demanded before the pilot could speak.

CLICK!

The pilot of the Light Chaser retracted their helmet, revealing an alluring, wickedly charming face, and spoke in a woman’s voice.

“Antilo.”

“So, a ladyboy,”

Chen Hong sneered.

“Say that again, if you have the guts. I don’t mind killing you.”

Antilo licked his lips like a venomous snake.

“You think you can?”

Chen Hong sneered mockingly.

“That’s enough! The Second Legion strictly forbids infighting. The consequences will be your own to bear.”

Colonel Hopka reprimanded the two.

“Hmph!”

Antilo and Chen Hong both snorted coldly and said nothing more.

“Captain, one more still hasn’t arrived.”

Woperi said to Hopka.

“Dammit, we’ll wait a little longer!”

Although Hopka was extremely anxious, he couldn’t depart until everyone was present.

Just then, the sound of footsteps echoed from the distance.

Colonel Hopka turned to look, his eyes instantly widening in disbelief.

…

At that moment, Long Ming, clad in the Blade Blood Demon mecha armor, entered Waiting Hall 32. He turned his head, scanning his surroundings for his contact.

Suddenly, Long Ming sensed danger and snapped his head up. A terrifying figure was lunging at him from above, bringing down a hammer in a brutal smash.

Long Ming immediately raised a materialized blade to block!

CLANG!

The two weapons clashed.

BOOM—

The entire floor shattered, and a massive shockwave swept outward.

Long Ming was forced back several steps. When he steadied himself and looked, he saw that his attacker was none other than Hopka.

At the same time, Woperi, Fakadon, and the others rushed forward and surrounded Long Ming.

The surrounding travelers were stunned.

“What’s going on?”

“Holy crap, who is that guy!”

“He pissed off the pilots of so many Gen-4 Mechanical Gods by himself!”

…

Hopka’s eyes were bloodshot, the veins on his body bulging. He roared at Long Ming like an enraged Fierce Beast.

“You son of a bitch! I’ve finally got you! Today, you’re dead!”

Hopka then raised his mechanical hammer again and brought it down brutally on Long Ming.

Long Ming immediately fell back to dodge the attack.

“I’ll slaughter you!”

Hopka furiously swung his hammer, relentlessly attacking Long Ming.

Long Ming kept raising his blade to block as he retreated, then said in a raspy voice:

“I’m with the Second Legion now! If you keep attacking me, the consequences will be severe!”
